A really nice project. Hope I can migrate all my workflows from MinGW32 here.
-
Works very good, I love pacman from Arch :)
-
Great project, the original MSYS was far from the *nix experience, but MSYS2 is very promising: development is active, a decent terminal emulator and, the best of all, pacman! (yeah, I'm an Archlinux user).
-
A long needed refresh of the old and buggy MSYS. The inclusion of a tried and tested package manager finally provides what Windows MinGW-w64 users have been missing for ages. I hope this project can live long and provide people with a good shell and packaging environment for Windows MinGW-w64.

When you will discover Msys2, you will forget Cygwin
-
This is just what was needed. Been trying to use msys/mingw for years and constantly fighting with little issues. I already knew pacman from my ArchLinux days (too many debian servers now ... or I'd still be using it!), and this just worked.

An excellent project!

excellent,thx
-
I am not particularly a fan of Pacman (mostly because of poor choice of flags - the tool is not made for humans, IMHO), but MSYS2 just rocks!! I appreciate the hard work done by MinGW, Cygwin and MSYS2 guys.
-
GREAT!!! just what was needed!!! msys was to old and difficult to update
-
What an excellent project!
-
Easy to retrieve popular MinGW libraries!
-
The BEST option around, definitely superior (more modern) to other MSYS distributions. Very streamlined with the included mintty.
-
Excellent! This is what I have been waiting for. Finally a good shell and up-to-date packages.
